Effective technical communication helps to address information challenges faced by many organisations, such as:

Products and Systems

• Inefficient or non-existent supporting materials.
• Increased cost/effort spent supporting end users.
• Technical staff lack skills to communicate effectively in written form.
• Potential barriers to successful roll-out and acceptance.

External Communications

• Difficulty communicating complex ideas successfully.
• Business documents lack effectiveness.
• Great website design, but what about the content?

Internal Efficiencies

• New staff are slow to reach full productivity.
• Valuable knowledge and expertise is only held by certain individuals.
• Ongoing struggle to keep information current and useful.
• Staff do not feel empowered to do their jobs.
• Low levels of productivity and operational efficiency.
• Documentation not practical for operational needs.
